"I had a wonderful experience with DDL training! Tania is amazing and so supportive! My 1.5 year old dog and I have done the Adult basic training and a specific workshop on jumping. Both were super helpful. I really appreciated the encouraging, positive atmosphere, even when my pup or I had challenges catching on to something. Highly recommend!"

FAQs

Find answers to commonly asked questions.
Why does my dog need the Bordetella vaccination every 6 months?

Bordetella, commonly known as kennel cough, is a concern in environments where dogs are in close contact, like daycare. To ensure the health and safety of all our furry guests, we've established a 6-month Bordetella vaccination rule, based on consultations with veterinarians. For added convenience, Downtown Dog Lounge offers an in-house intranasal version of this vaccine.

How long are the training sessions?

Our training services vary in length from 15 minutes to 60 minutes depending on what you select.

Do you use positive reinforcement techniques?

Yes, our experienced trainers use positive reinforcement techniques to teach obedience, manners, and more. We focus on building a strong bond between you and your dog.

Do you offer training at multiple locations?
